Luther Vandross more than deserves the Hall of Fame! He had consistent success from the beginning of his career to the end, including many, many R&B and Pop hits. Every album except one went platinum or double platinum! And the other one went gold. Luther was one of a kind with a very unique voice. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is not truly a Hall of Fame without Luther Vandross in it!

I think Luther Vandross deserve to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame I mean if it wasn't for his voice is coming during vocals and who soothing velvety voice none of us will be here I'm talking about the younger generation hell I made three or four kids off of Luther Vandross music so yes I think he deserve to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Released a platinum album in 1981 and 2003.

12 of his 13 albums have gone platinum, 11 of them did so consecutively.

8 Grammys, which honestly isn't all that important, but it does indicate mainstream relevancy along with critical acclaim.

He's consistently been great and is one of the greatest singers we'll ever get. There will never be another Luther Vandross.
